My cat's ears seem to be bothering him. He frequently scratches them and also shakes his head. The vet suggested that it may be food allergies (he mentioned fish), so I switched my cat to California Natural Grain-Free Chicken, which has nothing but chicken, peas, sunflower oil, and vitamins and minerals in it. The problem persisted, so I took him back to the vet, who prescribed him Atopica. This has not worked. The vet did suggest steroids, but wanted to try Atopica first because of the negative side effects of steroids. The vet thought that it may be environmental allergies. The only other thing that I can think of is stress from a recent move, but I cannot see how stress and ears are connected.
